Last Week in Photos

We started our week by cooking several dinners for the freezer for the week ahead. Mike made his delicious chili.

If you are a regular reader of this blog, you know that I am not a great photographer. I have taken Craftsy classes, purchased professional lighting, really thought through the photos and snapped, snapped, snapped thousands of pictures. A few are pretty good, most are not.

However, I totally enjoy taking photos! They are visual reminders of things I have seen and done. They also help me remember what posts I want to write. With all the holiday sales, I purchased a good camera with a couple of nice lenses to use for the blog. Hopefully, they will help improve the quality of photos I use.

Mike is a great photographer and has several really nice cameras, but I don’t think he is willing to turn me loose with them; nor I am willing to take on the responsibility. Leave it to me to drop a pricey lens!

Anyway, I thought it might be fun to share my last week in photos. These are straight from the old iPhone, so quality they are not. However, they are quick and convenient to shoot!

I got a new couch! I have never had a sectional before, so not sure how I will like it.Our Thanksgiving turkey, compliments of my brother-in-law, Jeff.I made two pumpkin pies for Thanksgiving. We voted as to which was our favorite. The America’s Test Kitchen recipe won! I had a little helper, Chloe, with the pie decorations.The backyard of one of my sister’s rent houses. We toured the house on Thanksgiving – it was a good excuse to get a bit of exercise!Archie doing the shake for the camera! His turkey toy is by his side.We shopped for new carpet for my craft room. One of these may be the winner.This Lowe’s planter was the inspiration for the planters on my front porch.We spent two nights over the weekend sitting by the fire.We got out early Saturday morning and went hiking at Tyler State Park. It was a nice park with good hiking trails. The gift shop was amazing!A bright berry we saw on our hike.Another photo from the hike…a red mushroom.

The new camera arrives on Monday. Hopefully, you will be able to tell a difference in the quality of photos. Have a good week! Enjoy!
